Rush hour this morning was a little different than other days: motorists and early birds were treated to a rare astronomical phenomenon — a partial solar eclipse that lasted just over two hours until 9.30am.
Photos and videos were everywhere on social media and the news, so we’ve compiled some of the coolest shots for you to take a look (in case you missed the real thing this morning).
